larsrulz 0 #1 July 11, 2006 Looks like my company is sending me to Paris (Melun to be exact) in September/October for about 6 weeks. Any good dropzones nearby; particularly if there are at least some people who speak English, but not necessary (I've managed to make my way around Russia for the past year without much Russian) I don't mind having to take the train or whatever, but just want to do some jumping somewhere! I got a strong urge to fly, but I got no where to fly to. -PF Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snowwhite 0 #2 July 12, 2006 FrenchCloud (Patrick Mercier) of Paris, France is currently here at the WFFC in Rantoul, Illinois. He came here originally 3 years ago when he was teaching French at the University of Illinois in Champaign. He has been a volunteer at the WFFC every year since then. I will ask him to respond to this question. He will be heading back to France when the WFFC is over. If you want to actually talk to him, and you are going to come to the WFFC, I will be happy to introduce you.skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When the WFFC was about 20 miles away I was much more able to attend than when it is 20 hours of plane rides away. Perhaps next year vacation will match up better.
